About this map

Albert Lea serves as the focal point of this 2010 study, where the intersection of major transit corridors meets a complex system of glacial lakes and managed waterways. The map highlights the city's civic infrastructure, from the Albert Lea Municipal Airport and Freeborn County Fairgrounds to the centrally located Fountain Lake Dam. This environment is shaped by both natural features like Albert Lea Lake and extensive drainage engineering, evidenced by labels like County Ditch Number Fifteen and Judicial Ditch Number Eighteen.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites, including the Freeborn County Poor Farm Cemetery and the Seventh-day Adventist Cemetery near Lerdal. The surrounding township landscape is dotted with smaller settlements like Bancroft and recreation areas such as Clarks Grove Golf Course, illustrating the transition from urban center to rural Minnesota farmland.
